Cities, like people, often have nicknames besides official names. Funny or respectful, they seem to reflect the warm attitude of neighbors to these edges. Perhaps, this is the way in Poland to Lublin (Lublin), which is often called "Goat Hail" or "Small Krakow". After all, this wonderful city is as beautiful and original as Krakow, and at the same time (for the present) not overpopulated with tourists. But "Goat Hail" Lublin is called because of the white goat on his coat of arms, who is going to eat a grapevine.

How to get to Lublin

Lublin is situated in the valley of the Bystrica river. But there is no way to get there by water, as well as by air, there is no airport in the city. It remains to get on the ground. For example, on his or her rented car. Here everything is clear: hire a car (from 18 EUR per day, depending on the rental location and class of the car), and then follow one of the autobahns to the place. If you are coming from Warsaw, then the whole journey on route 17 or E372 will take about 2.5 hours.

Railway communication with Lublin is excellent. You can get there by train not only from Warsaw (travel time 2.3 hours, ticket price from 9.60 EUR to 15) and other Polish cities, but also from neighboring countries. For example, from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Ukraine: from Kiev, Lviv and Odessa there are several flights that will take tourists to Lublin. But from Belarus to this city, you will have to change planes, changing the train and bus.

The destination by direct bus from Warsaw can be reached in 3.5 hours, paying 6-7 EUR. Other countries of the European Union and Ukraine also have direct flights to Kozemo.

Orientation and movement in the city

Lublin's city transport is represented by trolley-buses and buses. Tickets for them are sold in kiosks at public transport stops, the most expensive (prices depend on whether the municipal bus or private) costs about 60 euro cents.

With regret, we warn that Lublin pickpockets are also welcome to tourists, but in their own way, so you should not lose your vigilance in transport.

In summer, the authorities of the city especially for tourists launch several excursion trolleybuses. You can ride them on Sundays, only 1-1.5 EUR. The routes start from the Kraków Gate, marked with different colors and take from 2 to 4 hours depending on the subject of the excursion.

The city's location historically determined its closest connection with its neighbors: Ukrainians and Byelorussians. This is even reminiscent of city signs, some of which are written in these Slavic languages. In addition, in Ukrainian and Belarusian languages, in addition to Polish and English, an information brochure on the Lublin Voivodeship, the Brest and Volyn regions - Euroregion Bug, is published every month.

In communication with the local residents of those who do not know Polish, also benefit Ukrainian and Belarusian: there are many students who speak these languages. In addition, almost all the young people speak excellent English, but older people can still answer you in Russian.
